Given below are two statement: one is labelled as Assertion $A$ and the other is labelled as Reason $R$.

Assertion $A:$ If an electric dipole of dipole moment $30 \times 10^{-5}\,Cm$ is enclosed by a closed surface, the net flux coming out of the surface will be zero.

Reason $R$ : Electric dipole consists of two equal and opposite charges.

In the light of above, statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below:

  • [JEE MAIN 2023]
  • A

    Both $A$ and $R$ are true and $R$ is the correct explanation of $A$

  • B

    $A$ is true but $R$ is false

  • C

    Both $A$ and $R$ true but $R$ is NOT the correct explanation of $A$

  • D

    $A$ is false but $R$ is true

Consider a uniform electric field $E =3 \times 10^{3} i\; N / C .$

$(a)$ What is the flux of this field through a square of $10 \;cm$ on a side whose plane is parallel to the $y z$ plane?

A circular disc of radius $R$ carries surface charge density $\sigma(r)=\sigma_0\left(1-\frac{r}{R}\right)$, where $\sigma_0$ is a constant and $r$ is the distance from the center of the disc. Electric flux through a large spherical surface that encloses the charged disc completely is $\phi_0$. Electric flux through another spherical surface of radius $\frac{R}{4}$ and concentric with the disc is $\phi$. Then the ratio $\frac{\phi_0}{\phi}$ is. . . . . .
